================================================================================================
Overview:
    Designed by Clan Snow Raven scientists, the Foxhound is a compromise between the firepower
    of the Puma and the speed of the vaunted Fenris design. With massive XL engines being
    reserved for heavy omni's, the design team chose the 280 XL and the 40-ton frame as best
    suited to a fast medium omnimech.
    
    
    
    NOTE: The original Foxhound design carried 17 ton of pod space and 7 tons of Ferro-Fibrous
    armor.  The Prime variant mistakenly shows only 16.5 tons of pod space and and extra .5 ton
    of armor.  Thanks to Sleeping Dragon for drawing my attention to the error.

Capabilities:
    The A variant is intended for sniping and fire support.  The ER Large Lasers are slaved to a
    targeting computer and provide the bulk of the firepower.  Twin LRM launchers provide a
    supplemental fire in a wide arc, and allow the mech a minimal capacity for indirect fire.
    The single ton of LRM ammunition was deemed sufficient by the Raven design team, but pilots
    are cautioned to conserve ammo when possible.

Deployment:
    This design has yet to see major action, but several prototypes have already been
    incorporated into Snow Raven R-teams.
